Photo of the Week – February 22 2013

Lately I’ve been spending a lot of time at Père Lachaise Cemetery where I’m working on a short art video. Each time I’m there I’m reminded of its beauty. It’s the city’s largest cemetery, and it’s filled with wandering cobblestone alleys, crooked trees, scattered sunlight and the sound of crows, making it an amazing place to roam. One million people have been buried there, according to the city of Paris’ official website. Some of the famous gravesites include Abelard and Heloise, Chopin, Edith Piaf and Oscar Wilde.
